This is a tabbed display and other important information about this problem can only be seen by selecting
the other tabs, which are above. For a list of places where this problem has been quoted, click on the 'Quotations' tab.
For links to anticipations, posticipations, any problem of which this is a 'version' or 'after' and any
'versions' or 'afters' of this problem, click on the 'Anticipations ...' tab. I accept that this display
format is not perfect. I have been working on an untabbed display format for some while as part of a new
interface for Meson. I hope to update to that in due course, but there is much to do before then.

All solutions have been generated automatically using a set of default options and are only
fully present for #2s and #3s. Solutions to #4s and #5s are being slowly added (and don’t
include set play or tries), so some have solutions and some don’t. No other stipulations have
been tested and neither have any twin positions. Solutions may include tries that
aren’t thematic and lack tries that are. Sorry about this, but I do not have time to
edit individual solutions.

If so, please contact me, quoting PID 170288. Thank you.
